Convertible loud?

[sam_nicci]

I have a 2005 MINI and am fixing to trade it in. I am wanting a convertible, but not sure if they're loud and rattley. My mom has a convertible (not MINI) and her car is always rattling and is really loud. I am either getting a convertible or an S. Can anyone give me any feedback on a MINI Convertible? Thanks!

Though I just got my Cooper S Convertible, it is by far the best car I have owned.
Very tight, and the only noise is the noise I want to hear which is the pleasant sport exhaust.
Nothing like a rag top mini.
